Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Everyone came back and the topic was changed.

Wang Xifeng let them eat and drink, winked, called Jing Li over, and asked him to go to Lizheng Hall for a walk: "Just tell them that I am concerned about the prince's food and drink, and ask them if they need to ask the kitchen to prepare hangover soup, bird's nest porridge, silver thread noodles, etc."

Jing Li was a little confused.

Wang Xifeng refused to let him know directly about this matter, and only ordered him to go quickly: "By the way, go to Cheng'en Hall to see if He Ke wants to come back."

In the afternoon, when Wang Xifeng was sleeping, Princess Heke heard that Wu Liangyuan was going to guard the outer hall of Cheng'en Hall, and she felt a little worried about Tao Ge'er, so she went to accompany him.

Jing Li thought that Wang Xifeng was actually mainly worried about He Ke, so he relaxed a little and left.

Everyone laughed and wanted to come forward to toast Wang Xifeng, but Xia Shouzhong stopped them: "There is still someone lying in Cheng'en Hall, and the prince hasn't come back yet. It's still early, the master should stay awake."

"I'll just drink one glass." Wang Xifeng smiled, raised a large glass, and drank it in one gulp.

Everyone cheered loudly, and then went to play on their own.

Xia Shouzhong took the initiative to eat the food and refused to drink.

Seeing this, Ru'er came over to serve Wang Xifeng dinner and asked her softly, "Does Liang Di have any other plans tonight?"

"What's wrong?" Wang Xifeng served herself the meal and started eating seriously.

If the prince didn't come back today, she might have to stay alert all night, so the most important thing now is to have a full stomach.

Ruer then whispered the conversation she had just had with Hongdou, saying, "I know my own business. I never talk in my sleep. But she actually agreed with me..."

Wang Xifeng listened while she finished two bowls of rice, two and a half dishes of vegetables, and a bowl of soup. Then she told Ruer, "Did you see that? This is the white-eyed wolf that can never be tamed!"

Ruer was a little annoyed: "I really taught her all my skills!"

"Say it again?" Wang Xifeng smiled, "Why don't I believe it?"

Ruer blushed slightly: "I only left a little bit in the bottom of the box..."

Wang Xifeng chuckled and stretched herself lazily: "It will rain if it does, and my mother will marry if she does. Let her do it!"

"Why did the girl change her name to Hongdou? She is so happy?" Ruer wondered.

Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "Her admiration for the Crown Prince has not been a one-day thing. Now that the palace ban has finally been lifted and my position has been promoted, I guess I will have more opportunities to meet the Crown Prince.

"Her passion must have surged."

Ruer understood immediately, and her face became even darker with anger: "Haha, you didn't even look at yourself, and you actually thought you were the one who missed me the most!"

The master and servant were talking in private at the top when they heard the sound of brisk footsteps outside.

Wang Xifeng's eyes lit up, and she quickly held Ruer's hand: "He Ke is back!"

He stared at the door, and sure enough, he saw a bright red feather satin cloak flung aside, and Princess He Ke walked in wearing a bright red skirt and jacket, with double spiral buns tied with red satin ribbons decorated with seven treasures.

Everyone in the hall felt as if a ball of fire was rolling in!

"I said I have good taste! She should wear red!" Wang Xifeng was very proud and stretched out her hand to her daughter from a distance, "Come quickly! Is it cold outside? Have you eaten yet?"

He Ke came in skipping and jumping, and was a little surprised to see that everyone had already eaten half of their meal. After she bowed to Wang Xifeng and sat down next to her, she discovered that Wang Xifeng had even finished her meal.

He immediately opened his eyes wide, and held Wang Xifeng's arm unwillingly, shaking: "Mother didn't even wait for me to eat! I'm not happy!"

"Today is your mother's first day in office. I don't know how many people are waiting to cause trouble for me. Do I have time to slowly sip tea and wine? Why not finish my meal and wait for trouble to come?"

Wang Xifeng did not shy away from telling He Ke the truth. She took He Ke's hand, checked his temperature, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter? You've been on duty in Cheng'en Palace for half a day, but your stepmother didn't give you any food?"

"The Crown Princess invited me to have dinner, but those are dishes for patients. They are tasteless and I don't like them." He Ke looked down and asked, "What delicious food do we have today?"

"The Concubine specially asked to leave these two things for the princess." Ruer hurriedly brought over a plate of ham and Buddha's hand pastry and a bowl of Ruyi melon and date meat, and picked out a bowl of five-color dragon beard noodles and a bowl of fish lips in milk soup.

He Ke looked at the four dishes with great joy: "I knew it would be better to eat at home!"

He immediately sat down next to Wang Xifeng and ate and drank happily.

Nanny Ji was a little tipsy after being toasted by everyone. She turned around and saw the princess finally came back. Just when she felt relieved, she saw her eating and couldn't help but come over to persuade her:

"Princess, eat slowly."

"Okay, Ma'am." He Ke hurriedly sat down, holding his spoon and chopsticks, and ate in a dignified manner.

Wang Xifeng, who was standing by, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Be more polite.

"You will be attending many occasions in the future. There will also be many young ladies from noble families playing with you, and even praising you with every word they say. You must not take it seriously.

"We must not abandon all etiquette. We must behave as well as we did last night!"

"The princess is actually very dignified when eating, but because of her martial arts training, her appetite is bigger than other ladies." Nanny Ji spoke up for He Ke again, "I am only advising her because I am worried that the princess might eat too much and too fast, which might hurt her stomach."

Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "Just spoil her!"

He Ke looked at the two people who loved him the most, smiled sweetly, and ate his meal peacefully and seriously. He felt that this moment was the happiest moment in his life.

After she finished eating, Wang Xifeng made an excuse and asked Ru'er to serve her while she went back to her room to rest.

I also made the excuse of being tired and went back to my bedroom.

Let everyone outside eat and drink as they please.

This noise continued until the third gong sounded after the watch, when someone hurried in from outside to announce, "The prince is back."

Everyone then quickly cleaned up and washed up.

Jing Li went up to him and asked, "How is the Crown Prince? Would you like to send our Concubine over?"

"The prince was very pleased to have hot silver thread noodles as soon as he entered the house.

"Ask Liang Di if she has slept. If she hasn't, tell her to go to bed early. The affairs of the Eastern Palace are complicated and cannot be completed in one day and one night. Don't tire yourself out."

The young eunuch smiled.

Jing Li looked him up and down. "I don't know him well. What's your name, young eunuch?"

"I took my master's surname, Yu. Our master gave me this name. My name is Jianzhong, and I have a junior fellow apprentice named Jiancheng." Jianzhong said everything.

His master Yu Changying had told him to be polite to the people in the West Hall.

Jing Li chuckled and stretched out his hand to pinch his shoulder: "Alright, Chang Ying has started to take apprentices? When was he transferred to Lizheng Hall?"

Jianzhong bowed and said, "I've only been here a few days."

Jing Li wanted to chat for a while, but Xia Shouzhong turned around and said, "Our Concubine barely slept yesterday, and she drank two glasses of wine today, so she went to bed early. Go back and tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that everyone in the West Palace has kowtowed to the Crown Prince and wished him a happy new year."

As he spoke, he called everyone over, and they knelt in front of the steps and kowtowed respectfully.
